[BUG] Magnetic Grasp

I have found the same, when using dual dagger I am unable to create fire aura, or obtain the benefits of my traits that provide affects upon receiving or creating auras. Alongside this, Magnetic Grasp is still an unstable tool, and without the benefit’s of the aura, I only ever use it for chasing down a target… which is quite a rare occasion as an Ele – generally I am running away.

I have noticed enemies respawn awfully fast. I am running around as a warrior (quite simply because I love plate armour, and melee combat – I really dislike the easiness of the profession), and I kill things insanely fast. I will clear out a camp in a few seconds… but within 30 seconds they are all back.

I find this particularly immersion breaking. I am often in areas with no other players around, I will fight my way inside a moderately sized cave – only to have to fight my way out through where I fought in. (Moderately being, I’m at the back of the cave in 120 seconds.

Often times, there are harder mobs at the back and I will have to perform lots of evasive maneuvers, such as in Kessex Hills Goff Bandits at the Earthlords Gap, there are 2 veteran trolls there, fighting them is fun but is ruined because I have to take on the cave I killed LITERALLY less than 30 seconds ago, while fighting them, if I move them out of the area… which I have to do because they both use interrupts and aoe interrupts/nukes.

I understand other players need to see things too but there was no players around.. and it was 30 seconds. Can’t it be 2 minutes or something less sinister and ridiculous? Hell, 5 minutes is surely not going to cause too much of a stir.

Thanks for reading.

Annoyance with login

My first gripe is that I wasn’t allowed to use already used passwords, this is infuriating, I don’t need help protecting my account, I feel like I am being hand held like a baby despite being an IT professional with experience in Organisational System Security.

Second, E-Mail Authentication SUCKS, every SINGLE time I need to login, It believes I am connecting from a different location, I have apparently logged in from almost every parish with a repeater in my home county as well as 500 miles away in places like Covent Garden, Bristol, Minehead, Exeter, Plymouth… the list goes on. It has NEVER actually found my true location and it’s actually worse for my account security as I am having to allow access to these paths and save them so that the 4 or so hours until my IP get’s re leased I can login without accessing my email.

Where is the option to turn this off, and if there isn’t one… why?

And give me the option to use my old passwords, I have been using the same 21 character string for as long as I can remember without issue, and I always use variations of it for everything. Regardless of the opinions of security experts, a password you remember is better than one you don’t.

I was FORCED to use my GW1 account, I cannot tell you how long it took me to remember my characters name there – I had to have a friend who had the game login and check his friends list. I played Guild Wars years ago, you almost prevented me playing the game because of your idiotic security measures. I had no interest in using my old account, I wanted a new one, you forced me to use an old one, forced me to change my password because it had been used before, making a process that should have been simple, quick and easy, long and arduous.

If you really want to add an OPTIONAL layer of security, add what Blizzard added, and what my bank uses, an Authenticator. Something I can opt into if I am concerned.

Fortunately, despite not having dueling just yet, the game is brilliant and is everything I had imagined it to be before release.

Dueling. Simple, 1v1 duels.

Why this is not in the game, when there is also no way for me to join PVP with friends without stating a server then trying to get us all on the same team, is beyond me.

MASSIVE oversight.
